What would make the Salesforce connector become unverified?
- A . The Salesforce account has reached the limit of the number of lead or contact records that could be created
- B . The Marketing Cloud Account Engagement account has reached the limit of the number of prospect records that could be created
- C . The connector user’s Marketing Cloud Account Engagement password was changed
- D . The connector user’s Salesforce password was changed
D
Explanation:
The event that would make the Salesforce connector become unverified is the connector user’s Salesforce password was changed. A Salesforce connector is a feature that allows you to connect your Marketing Cloud Account Engagement account with your Salesforce CRM system, and enable bi-directional data sync and alignment between sales and marketing. To verify the Salesforce connector, you need to have a connector user, which is a Salesforce user that Marketing Cloud Account Engagement uses to access your Salesforce data and perform actions on your behalf. The connector user needs to have the appropriate permissions and settings in Salesforce, such as the API Enabled and Modify All Data permissions, and the security token2. If the connector user’s Salesforce password was changed, the security token would also change, and Marketing Cloud Account Engagement would not be able to authenticate with Salesforce. This would cause the Salesforce connector to become unverified, and the data sync between Marketing Cloud Account Engagement and Salesforce would stop. To fix this, you need to update the connector user’s password and security token in Marketing Cloud Account Engagement, and re-verify the Salesforce connector
How can you send an automated email to a prospect after they fill out a form?
- A . Using an Automation Rule
- B . Using a Completion Action
- C . None of the above
- D . Using a Segmentation Rule
A, B
Explanation:
You can send an automated email to a prospect after they fill out a form using either an automation rule or a completion action. An automation rule is a criteria-based action that is triggered when a prospect matches the rule. You can use an automation rule to send an email to prospects who fill out a specific form or any form. A completion action is a task that is performed after a prospect successfully completes a marketing element. You can use a completion action to send an email to prospects who fill out a particular form. You cannot use a segmentation rule to send an email, since segmentation rules are used to segment prospects into lists or update their field values.

What does the Google Analytics connector allow Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to do?
- A . Update the conversion field in Google Analytics.
- B . Sync prospects with Google AdWords.
- C . Send emails to prospects from Gmail.
- D . Append UTM parameters to a prospect record.
D
Explanation:
The Google Analytics connector allows Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to append UTM parameters to a prospect record. UTM parameters are tags that you can add to the end of a URL to track the source, medium, campaign, term, and content of your web traffic. By connecting Marketing Cloud Account Engagement with Google Analytics, you can automatically add UTM parameters to your Marketing Cloud Account Engagement tracked links and sync them with the prospect records. This allows you to see how your prospects are interacting with your online campaigns and measure their effectiveness
A marketing user wants to send out an email to a list of prospects on behalf of their assigned sales users. Any prospect replies should be directed to [email protected] so their team of business development reps can field questions and schedule follow up demos.
How should this be accomplished?
- A . Select Specific User for the Sender
- B . Select General User for the Sender
- C . Select Assigned User for the Custom Reply-To Address
- D . Select General Address for the Custom Reply-To Address
D
Explanation:
The best way to accomplish this scenario is to select General Address for the Custom Reply-To Address when sending the list email. This option allows the marketer to specify any email address as the reply-to address, regardless of the sender or the prospect owner. In this case, the marketer can enter [email protected] as the reply-to address, so that any prospect replies will be directed to the business development reps.
Option A is not correct because selecting Specific User for the Sender will not allow the marketer to send the email on behalf of the assigned sales users, but only from a specific Marketing Cloud Account Engagement user.
Option B is not correct because selecting General User for the Sender will not allow the marketer to send the email on behalf of the assigned sales users, but only from a general address that is not associated with any Marketing Cloud Account Engagement user.
Option C is not correct because selecting Assigned User for the Custom Reply-To Address will not allow the marketer to direct the prospect replies to [email protected], but only to
the user who owns the prospect record.

What does Marketing Cloud Account Engagement use to track HTML email opens?
- A . A tracking link is used as soon as a prospect clicks to open the email.
- B . A tracking pixel loads on HTML emails when images are downloaded.
- C . Opens are only tracked if a link is clicked; otherwise they are NOT tracked.
- D . A tracking pixel loads on text emails when images are downloaded.
B
Explanation:
Marketing Cloud Account Engagement uses a tracking pixel to track HTML email opens. A tracking pixel is a small image that is embedded in an HTML email, and it loads when the recipient opens the email and downloads the images. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement uses the tracking pixel to record the email open activity and associate it with the prospect record. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement does not use a tracking link to track HTML email opens, because a tracking link is a link that is modified by Marketing Cloud Account Engagement to track the click activity and redirect the recipient to the original URL. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement does not track email opens only if a link is clicked, because email opens and link clicks are different activities that are tracked separately. Marketing Cloud Account Engagement does not use a tracking pixel to track text email opens, because text emails do not support images or HTML.
What is a difference between a dynamic list and a static list?
- A . You cannot manually update list membership of a static list but you can manually update list membership of a dynamic list
- B . You cannot manually update list membership of a dynamic list but you can manually update list membership of a static list
- C . You can add an action to a dynamic list that will trigger when a prospect is added but you cannot add an action to trigger on a static list when a prospect is added
- D . Dynamic lists are retroactive while a static list cannot be retroactive
B
Explanation:
The difference between a dynamic list and a static list is that you cannot manually update list membership of a dynamic list but you can manually update list membership of a static list. A list is a collection of prospects that you can use to segment your audience, send emails, or perform other actions. A dynamic list is a list that automatically populates with prospects who match the criteria you set. A static list is a list that you manually populate with prospects or import from a file. A dynamic list is constantly updated, so prospects are added or removed from the list as they meet or no longer meet the criteria. A static list is not updated automatically, so you can add or remove prospects from the list as you wish. You cannot manually update list membership of a dynamic list, because the list is controlled by the criteria. You can manually update list membership of a static list, because the list is controlled by you
